If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear. - George Orwell

One minor girl, many Arabs

They are old predators with new vigour. Often bearded, invariably in flowing robes and expensive turbans. The rich, middle-aged Arabs increasingly stalk the deprived streets of Hyderabad like medieval monarchs would stalk their harems in days that we wrongly think are history. These Viagra enabled Arabs are perpetrating a blatant crime under the veneer of nikaah, the Islamic rules of marriage. Misusing the sanctioned provision which allows a Muslim man to have four wives at a time, many old Arabs are not just marrying minors in Hyderabad, but marrying more than one minor in a single sitting.

"The Arabs prefer teenage, virgin brides," says Jameela Nishat, who counsels and sensitises young women against the malaise. Two of her volunteers, Shahida Yasmeen and Tasneem Sultana, in their early twenties experienced the trauma of being scanned by an old Arab. A few months ago, they accompanied an undercover television reporter who was following these sham marriages. They reached a home where half a dozen other prospective brides were gathered. "It resembled a brothel. The girls were paraded before the Arab who would lift the girls’ burqa, run his fingers through their hair, gaze at their figures and converse through an interpreter," says Yasmeen recalling the day.

Most girls inspected by the Arab were minors, and forced by a complex union of their parents and Islamic clerics to yield to the preliminary probes of the Arab.

Curiously, the high priests of the All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) and the fatwa brigade of Darul Uloom Deoband, who are gearing up to defend the legality of Islamic Courts in the Supreme Court, seem to have shut their eyes to this phenomenon that is aided and abetted by Hyderabad's Qazis or clerics.

Dear blogger, The understandable fact is you dont have to be a muslim..and if you have anything against govt cos u might not get citizrnship then deal with that problem..if you dont want to be a muslim, dont b....! You dont have to attack on a religon..you seem to have an obsesion regarding this..No religons morals would allow another religon to be degraded..thats for sure..Obsesed is the word..You seem to be taking out your frustrations...and some sort of hatred, jealousy and envy inside you...

anonymous, posting some of your Hadiths, a news item from Times of India, some more Hadiths, a news item about marriage in Saudi Arabia, news item about Olympics and terror suspects, quoting a muslim cleric..etc etcHow do these things become an attack on a religion? It is information. I am not making anything up. Go check your Koran and Hadith. If you are ashamed of reading your own texts and news items about your Ummah I cannot help that.

Your dilemma is one the one hand you know that 54 yr old man doing things with a 6 yr old child is wrong. On the other hand you have been taught to love and admire this man and that he can do no wrong.Take a stand.Don't give me that morals B$@%%T.. What you are doing is objecting to my postings about immoral things.

In what kind of language do you want me to write about 30 innocent woemn and children being being blown up or 70 year old Viagra fuelled Arabs shopping for children in Hyderabad?If pointing out that BA Naseem wants to remove the minimum age for marriage or that a revered Maldivian mullah is calling for the killing of those who leave Islam is lacking in decency or degrading a religion then you need to get your head examined.You want me to sugar coat vile and disgusting actions because they are committed by people of your Ummah in the name of your Allah? People like you give Islam a bad name - by trying to hide the filth and perversions done in the name of your Allah. And your actions allow these people to continue. It is not me you should be going after. Go after the people who are doing these things.Are you trying to defend perversions and inhuman practises? Then don't be shy - come out and say it. Dont accuse me of vague things like "the language, the message behind, .......it lacks decency"

A large majority of us are brought up with the mindset that Islam cannot be wrong. Never! And so we do not think otherwise for even a split-second. You can see a perfect example of that in anonymous comments up above.

And for people up above like anonymous's, the guy(s) at this blog are stating what they believed to be facts. Go ahead and find out the factual accuracy without refuting instantly with a set of hadith and verses while in the mindset of "my religion can never be wrong". Heck they aren't even asking you to convert to chiristianity (oh well may be except that Dhivehi Chrisitian guy. But thats fine too since Muslims are doing that as well).

Dont get pissed off when someone criticise your religion and point out the things some followers of your religion do under its name. Like it or not, people do blow up places, marry 8 year olds, physically abuse minors, take away lives. And when someone points it out, try not to deviate from the real issue by diverting to the tone of language they use.

Why cannot you accept there is something wrong either with your religion or how you interpret it, for we do not find inidividuals blowing up in that same proportion by followers other religion. Surely SOMETHING is not right?

why dont you give factual proof of the right religon without taking some stuff from internet and pasting it here....and if you guys are athiests why dont you try to prove there is no creator..in your own words......What is it you are implying here? That Islam is wrong? If so balance your articles by showing what is right as well...Be sensible

"The strongest proof of real, extremely despotic power in Islam is the fact that it has been able to invalidate, in such large measure, the entire history (customs, religion, previous way of looking at things, earlier imagination) of the peoples converted to it. It accomplished this only by instilling into them a new religious arrogance which was stronger than everything and induced them to be ashamed of their past."

"Is the fate of gradually becoming an Arab nation the Maldive Islanders' only option?This is the Maldivian dilemma since they made the decision to accept the Arabs as their undisputed cultural masters and began to sever their links with their own past.Nowadays Maldivians are culturally restless people who can never be at ease.The intense indoctrination of the 1980s and 90s, when Islamization was imposed on the islands at a much higher gear than at any time in the nation's history, has made Maldivians feel uncozy in their own country.The changes brought about have been of such magnitude and in such a short time, that there is now a whole young generation of Divehi people who, having not known how things were previously, take for granted that their home nation has always been so orthodox and impersonal."

- Xavier Romero-Frias in THE MALDIVE ISLANDERS, A Study of the Popular Culture of an Ancient Ocean Kingdom

"The Islamic conquerors took everything from the newly conquered: money, language, culture, traditions, wives, children, values. Everything. The nature of Islam is that it replaces cultures wherever it gets a foothold."

150 Maldivian Adulteresses To Be Flogged

Stop the Islamic religious duty of Fuc-Kendun in Maldives!

When a husband pronounced his wife divorce three times “thrice divorced” and wants to remarry her, he cannot do it lawfully until he pays another man “Al Mohalil”(which means the legalizer) who marries this thrice divorced woman and (had sexual intercourse or consummating the marriage with her) and then dismisses her so that she may lawfully marry her former husband.

In Quran sura al-Baqara 2:230 says,”…So if a husband divorced his wife he cannot after that remarry her until after she has married another husband, and he has divorced her, in that case there is no blame on either of them if they reunite…”

Abu Dawud (2142) - "The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: A man will not be asked as to why he beat his wife."

ISLAMIC FUK-KENDUN IS A MORAL AND PHYSICAL RAPE.

In Islam a husband can reunite with his wife after divorcing her under this condition: When a woman is divorced irrevocably, she can not return to her husband until she marries (including having sexual intercourse) with another man. "Narrated Aisha: The wife of Rifaa Al-Qurazi came to Allah's Apostle and said, 'O Allah's Apostle, Rifaa divorced me irrevocably. After him I married Abdur-Rahman bin Az-Zubair Al-Qurazi who proved to be impotent.' Allah's Apostle said to her, 'Perhaps you want to return to Rifaa? Nay (You cannot return to Rifaa ) until you and Abdur-Rahman (the impotent man) engage in sexual intercourse! '" Vol. 7:186

The making of the ancient Dhivehi island people into semi-Arab Muslims

How Dhivehi minds are groomed to become lifelong zombies that they can't apply minimum logic and reason to discover numerous obvious errors and contradictions in the Quran and Hadith and that they consider the most horrendous, unethical and barbarous actions of Muhammad as acts of great morality and humanity...

Did you know ?

Until about 100 years ago in Divehi we didn't say "salaan kurun"?We said Namaskaarakurun or Swasti(Swasti = Peace)

men & women are equal in Islam?

Women cannot touch the Koran during certain days because they are unclean

Dhivehistanis want to conquer the world for Allah

"Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into (the hearts of) the enemies, of Allah and your enemies..." -- Koran 8:60

Muslim Arab missionaries and Dhivehi collaborateurs

Muslims cite Islamic taboos and Koranic injections as more important than freedom of thinking. Freedom of expression is and always has been subject to Islamic taboos. Islamic taboos exist to keep Muslims from thinking independently and these taboos are enforced by Mullahs and Islamic rulers. Those who oppose are silenced or beheaded. Public expression against Mohammed or Allah will be labeled as apostate and those dissenters will be severely punished. Strict censorship is imposed on TV, film, magazines and newspapers by religious bodies and by the government.

"If a book be false in its facts, disprove them; if false in its reasoning, refute it. But for God's sake, let us freely hear both sides if we choose". -Thomas Jefferson, third US president, architect, and author (1743-1826)

“If these writings of the Greeks agree with the book of God, they are useless and need not be preserved; if they disagree, they are pernicious and ought to be destroyed”. - Umar the Caliph of Islam after the conquest of Alexandria in 641, ordered the great library to be destroyed.

The books were then used to heat the furnaces of the numerous bath-houses of the city.

Maldives Minister of Islamic Affairs says

"Shari’ah law ultimately requires the killing of those who leave Islam."

All smiles after being found guilty of massacring 52 Hindus in a 2003 bombing, Hanif Anees is also quite dedicated to his religion. (Care to guess which one?)

Maldives Constitution: No Citizenship for non-Muslims

Article 9, Section D : “a non-Muslim may not become a citizen of the Maldives.”

By denying citizenship to some people on the basis of their religion, the country is violating religious minorities’ freedom of worship.

“This denial of citizenship to non-Muslims is an extraordinarily harsh measure which places the Maldives among the worst countries in the world in regards to the legal foundation for freedom of religion and belief,”

What does the Koran say about Jihad?

In Islam's 3 Holy Books: 97% references to jihad relate to holy war; while only 3% relate to inner struggle

"Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion paralyzes the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world." -- Sir Winston Churchill - circa 1899
